We are trying to understand the cost of contracting some of Tableau work out vs. hiring additional analysts internally, but our HR function is not familiar with the rates we would be charged. Does anyone have a resource and/or thoughts about what we should expect? My firm is based in Miami, Florida. The individual could work remotely.

Hey Carl, it depends on the level of complexity, but to hire a competent professional Tableau developer/consultant with experience, you're looking at anywhere from $75-300/hr. I'd be happy to learn more about your specific use case and see if I can lend some more insight into your situation. Feel free to shoot me an email @ Jack.Hoyt@delvepartners.com and we can setup some time to talk.

I am currently working virtually from the Washington DC area for a client in Tampa, FL doing their data integration and Tableau development. I'd be happy to talk to you regarding your situation. You can reach me at matthew.slaughter@sciosolutions.com.
